Saturday College


Classes When You Can Take Them 

Is your time tight? You can earn a degree in five semesters or your general credits to transfer in three semesters, taking up to five courses a semester on Saturdays only.  


More Flexibility Than Ever Before

Saturday College courses at Anoka-Ramsey are accelerated, hybrid courses, which means the pace is fast—often double the pace of a typical semester course. Further, up to half of your course work may be online. 

You can work or take care of your family during the week and spend as few as eight Saturdays on campus to complete one or more courses. If you like it, the next eight weeks offer even more choices. 


Courses for Saturday Scholars and Artists

For the lifelong learner in you, Anoka-Ramsey offers courses to learn more about other cultures, understand how the human mind works or paint a portrait.
